Progress: * VIRT-65 [QEMU upstream maintainership] + more code review and assembly of the last pull request for softfreeze for QEMU 5.2 + noticed that our AArch32 Neon emulation doesn't work on big-endian hosts. RTH fixed most of this and I wrote a couple of patches to fix bugs in some insns that were only noticeable once we got out of the "anything working on vectors is broken" state :-) + looked at trying to get our documentation to build with Sphinx 3, which has made some annoying incompatible changes to the markup it accepts * VIRT-364 [QEMU support for ARMv8.1-M extensions] + started implementation of new insns VSCCLRM, CLRM, and the new FP sysregs accessed via VLDR/VSTR KVM Forum (virtual conference) was this week. Some interesting talks: * Will Deacon on what Google is doing to introduce KVM into Android * Marc Zyngier/Christoffer Dall on a virtual-only interrupt controller that's less of a big lump of code to put on a security boundary than a full-on GIC * Salil Mehta on the current problems with doing Arm vCPU hotplug in KVM thanks -- PMM

Toolchain for cross compiling

by Suresh Nulu

Hi, I am new to toolchains. I would like to know information on building toolchains for different architectures. My objective is to build a cross compiling toolchain for AARCH64 BE target on the RHEL7.6 build system. It would be great if you can give me pointers on how to compile toolchains. Do we have any Wiki pages on building linaro toolchains for different architectures? Appreciate your help. Regards Suresh

libcxx-libcxxabi-libunwind-armv7-linux-noexceptions broken

by Louis Dionne

Hi, Something appears to be wrong with your builder libcxx-libcxxabi-libunwind-armv7-linux-noexceptions: http://lab.llvm.org:8011/builders/libcxx-libcxxabi-libunwind-armv7-linux-no… It's been failing that way for over 2 weeks now. Is anyone monitoring those builders? Louis
